Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Boys  wear overcoats in  heat like this  to keep themselves from  showing.
Girls  fill out prescriptions  for the  tricks that keep their  hearts from growing.
Specialists  review the  year in tears  and call for drastic  measures:
"Send  them to resorts  for boys and  girls to get their whits  together!"
Sad,  but true—the facts  of life are bound  to get you down.
 Oh what's the use,  dear Jenny? Anyway,  the world  is pretty...
Ashley  talks to astronauts  back home  by way of fax transmission.
Andy  gets a new tattoo  each time he  gets that bathroom privelege.
Weary,  oh so drearily,  we wave our  flags into the camera.
Amber  goes the hotline,  their all friends  but no one ever  asks her
Sad,  but true—the truth  can turn your  smile to a frown.
 Oh what's the use,  dear Jenny? Anyway,  the world  is pretty upside-down...
The  rates are better in the  summer.
The  rates are better in the  summer.
Looks  like old Jenny's doing  better.
The  rates are better in the  summer.
Back  at home, the broadcast  warning  bounces off of an empty  table.
Jenny  asks the astronauts  to sleep  with her behind the stable.
Christmas  hasn't been  the same since  Dad put in the central  heating—
checks  you before bedtime  with a battery  to keep your new  heart beating.
And  the world might  turn a million times  around before
 they tell you,  Jenny. Anyway, the  world is happy...
 Sometimes  they let strangers in and other times they check their records;
When  they check out  in the morning, Dad  puts out the lie detectors.
Jenny  prays to gods  she's never heard  of for a special warning.
 All  the walls stay dead as Jenny's head is but shes still observing.
Sad  to know the two  of us might really  make it through
 oh what's the use,  dear jenny? Anyway,  the world is happy—world  is sappy—world is happy
 you...
The  rates are better  in the summer....
Looks  like old  Jenny's doing  better...
